631.0. "Gaelic toasts needed..." by COFLUB::WRIGHT (What do you call a Boomerang that doesn't return?) Tue Aug 15 1989 11:37

    
    Hi guys,
    
    I need a favor:
    
    I just found out that one of my best friends just became engaged.
    
    I will probably be his best man.
    
    Do any of you know any good Irish toasts suitable to be used by
    a best man at the reception? In Gaelic??
    (Ted is first generation american, complete with irish passport...)
    
    Grins,
    
    clark.
